So there must have been a change in fwupd somewhere between version
1.7.4-1 and 1.7.5-3 that causes it to now require systemd. Please let me
know where I should report the issue.

[1] lists two dependency changes with 1.7.4-2:

```
fwupd (1.7.4-2) unstable; urgency=medium

* Add hard dependencies on libfwupd2 and libfwupdplugin5 built with
     us. Symbols suggest things should work, but maybe not. :-(
     Closes: #1003664

Well, looks like these two dependencies are not the cause. But checking
the differences between the "fwupd" package in buster ([2]) and bullseye
([3]) there is a dependency on "libsystemd0" that is not included in the
respective package for buster. Checking the changelog the build dep was
introduced with 1.5.3-1:

```
fwupd (1.5.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium
[...]
- Add systemd build dependency
[...]
```

[3]: https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/fwupd
